Anna Sui Open House

Hi all!

I was attending Anna Sui Open House at Seibu Beauty Lounge, Grand Indonesia last week. The Bloggers who also came are Carnellin and Cilla. I really excited because Anna Sui is an edgy brand. Their fashion, fragrance & cosmetic is very unique! It looks dark (they call it rock and roll) but also sweet & glamour at the same time.

A little story about the designer, Anna Sui. She was born in an industrial city, Detroit, USA. As an American born Chinese, she didn't have any friend in her childhood. That's why she liked to dream and imagine. We can see her imagination at her works. She believes in unicorn, fairy, dreamy creatures. Her favorite colors are black, red, and purple. No wonder those colors dominate most of her works. She also likes rose, butterfly and heart shape. So feminine.. Every product that she creates has its own story, such as Anna Sui Protective Loose Powder, which inspired by her mom & grandma jewelery box. Lovely isn't it? Sui it self is her family name, but it also means "Pretty" in Chinese. What a coincidence!

She wanted to be a designer since she was 4 years old. One day she attended Parsons, a famous Fashion School in New York. And luckily she met a famous photographer, Steven Meisel. She work as his fashion stylist. Until one day Steven Meisel support her to make a fashion show using the new models. That was the first Anna Sui's show. It was very success.

For the make-up do, Anna Sui style is edgy, colorful and dreamy! She loves colors, glitters, and also flawless skin. She wants every Anna Sui ladies look efforlessly beautiful but also vibrant. She loves contrast I guess.

Anyway.. it was a very casual session. We felt like visiting Anna Sui's house, talking, eating the foods, all in a casual way. We also did a make over. At first I was too lazy to erase my make up. Then Carnellin told us "When you arrive at home, you'll regret if you dont try the products right now". OK! Then me and Cilla tried the products also.. Hoho.. Yes, I loved the result so much! And you know what? Their cosmetics have the rose scent! I love roses! I love their scent.. ^^
